Ok Slinkedog,

NOW I know exactly what you were talking about! I did a ride with a couple of steep areas yesterday and I actually got off and (gasp!) walked! After crashing on the rollerblades going downhill, I am ultra whimpy and don't feel very stable on the downhills. Anyway, by the time I was done w/my ride my right wrist/arm hurt so badly that I ran home and iced it for a long time. I'm ordering my shims right now!

Thanks everyone for the info -

Tracy
